Our story

Natural gifts started two years ago when my friends and I were looking for alternative to the usual juice and soda. With my father going through chemo and my mother getting diabetes, I was at home experimenting drinks.

I wanted to give them something with no sugar, chemicals or preservatives. Just natural fruit juice and I learned by cold pressing fruits, we was able to uses just enough pressure to extract the juices while maintain the vitamins enzymes and minerals and by infusing the fruit with alkaline water, the drink did everything from flush toxins from their systems to keeping them hydrated and give them enough energy to keep moving throughout the day.

After sharing some with friends and family and hearing their response, I realize I could help more than just the people around me. With my family coming from Haiti, I got to experience what it was like living out there, having no source of clean water, at time literally drinking water out of a small plastic bag. Fast forward years later when I'm back in the US and see places like flint Michigan having issues getting clean water. We realize if we had a special bottle with a specific logo, the profits made with that bottle can be donated free clean water to places like Haiti and Flint Michigan. With that in mind, my friends and decided to go into business.

So we got our LLC, got an American Express card and bought some inventory to raise funds during a fundraiser and Original Web series about artists showing their natural gifts while promoting Natural Gifts.

The fundraiser didn't recoup the original investment but it taught us what we needed to learn for manufacturing, promoting anddistributing a product. Recently We held a test tasting party to try out different flavors

Operational Plan

Here at natural gifts we pride ourselves on freshness. Our product is Created on the principle of freshness that each every bottle will contains freshness fruit , cold pressed to obtain the highest natural Value . We plan on source our fruit from a local wholesaler such as john market and our bottles from rapport and son in which the fruit brought will be grade A Quality. Once obtained we will plan to produce Our cold pressed juice at a local incubator where they will be pressed and bottle. This will take place twice a week on Monday and Thursday morning in order to maximize the freshness of the juice. Our customers will have several ways to order our juice. They can order straight from our website and social media (wholesale, subscription and one time order & delivery)and have it delivered to their door, through Amazon fresh and locations near them where they can pick it up that would be listed on our site.

We also plan to sell it at farmer markets, through festivals/community events, gym/health clubs and to sell business to business for workplaces like Google and Facebook.

Financial Plan

Based on my research we estimate to sell 200 bottles a day 5 days a week that's $1,000 bottle a week retail price for a bottles is $9 and with a second option of our six pack the retail price will be $35 now let's break down one bottle of natural gifts the bottle will cost us $0.54 including cap and label fruits and vegetables will cost us 2.72 in total it will cost us to only make one bottle $3.16 remember the retail price 9 so our profit is 5.74 now let's break down to six pack for bottle it will cost us $3.24 that's including caps and labels and fruits and vegetable it will cost us $13.35 remember retail prices $35 so our profit will be $13.59.

Our week-to-week operations are for 3 Days in the incubator will cost us $495. The fruits and vegetables will cost us 300 and to purchase 12 oz bottles cost us $440 the total for our weekly expenses to manufacture and cold-pressed the juice is 1,235 we estimate to gross $9,000 a week and on a monthly gross 36,000 and at the end of the year we will grow 108,000.
